NEW YORK HERALD. Now ¥ rk, Monday, September 21, 1846, The Aspect of the Mexican War We published, in yesterday’s regular edition of the Herald, some interesting news from the army aud from Mexico, which was brought to New 0 by the Sea and Arab. The intelligence from th a fully confirms what We have heretofore rece’ nd proves that the American troops, under the command of en. Taylor, were in good healih and moving towards Monterey with all possible expedition, and are es‘ablishing depdts at Camargo and other places, with due care and prudence. The news brought by the Arab, which sailed from Vera Cruzon the 8d inst., is of greater impor- tance, much as it shows conclusively that the reception of Santa Anna. after his long exile, was not so fluttering as many Lad reason to believe it would have been. There was no great public de- monstration on his arrival; and on his landing, he was greeted by the congratulations of only a few private friends, It seems, likewise, that he had not reached the capital at the latest dates, but pre- ferred to remain at his hacienda, in the vicinity of Jalapa, ostensibly for the purpose of recruiting his health, bat really, no doubt, because he was disappointed in the manner of his reception. In the meantime. it appears that the army at San Luis Potosi, had again deciared in favor of the dictator Paredes, whose overthrow was occa- sioned by the declaration in favor of Santa Anra, and who was then lyir of Perote. This is certainly an anomalous state of things, even among the Mexicans, who are themselves an anomaly. Their former ruler is a prisoner, and the man whom the Castle of San Juan de Ultoa, and the city of Vera Cruz declared foria » vehement manner—and who had re- turned, in obedience to the popular will, is per- mitted to lund, according to the advices, more like a private citizen, than like a ruler—without any of those popular demonstrations which that people are 80 given to. It corroberates, however, the opinion we have always entertained, concer- «s that variable people. fgThese cirenmstances, we think, are of deep im- portance, as regards our present hostile relations wihthem Uniied tes, formed froma variety of corrobo- rating ci-cumstances, that an implied, if not a d rect understanding existed between the cabinet a’ Washington and Santa Anna—that in the event of his being restored to the control of the desti nies of Mex’co, he would exert his influence in bringing xbout a pence as speedily as possible. We have before stated, that we believed he was pursning a policy that would lead to this resulr— but the whole appearance of things become somewhat changed by the threatened revo- lution in favor of Paredes. If the decla- raion in favorof Paredes, should become gene- 2 among the army, of course Santa Anna’s vwer and influence are at an end, and Paredes i be restored to the situation he was deprived nermost recesses of the soul. The first view 1 | aby the pronunciamento of Vera Cruz—and Pa- :odes will be compelled, perhaps, to prosecute the war. On our part there will be no diminution of vigor in carrying on the war. Once fuirly established at Monterey, General Taylor will be in possession | of the principal stronghold in Northern Mexico. This place will be taken, nodoubt, without oppo- sition willitbe tous? We will have to carry the war farther into the interior, butno advantages will accrue to us, unless we march to the city of Mexico—for no enemy of censequence will Oppose our army. Our relations with Mexico, it thus appears, are | in a most complex, confused, and complicated condition. Mexico is her strength. Crvm War ar tae West.—Tur Mormon Trovsixs —If there is any thing calculated to | ofall sizes. The greatest of revolutions has be- | lower the Americen people and their institutions in the eyes of the old world, it is the state of things tat has existed for a year or two past among the Mormons and Anti-Mormons in the West. For that period cf time these two factions have been opposed to each other in the most violent manner; and now matters have reached such a state, through the imbecility of certain officials, who, by the use of proper means, could have effectually suppressed all discord in its first stages, that we hourly loo for the occurrence of scenes of bloodshed and discord, that will be a disgrace to the country and century we live in. We are informed by the latest accounts from that distracted region that a battle took place be- tween the Mormons and their opponents on the eleventh instant—that the opposing parties met on the road to the city of Nauvoo, and within one mile of the great temple~the destruction of which was resolved upon. The loss in this dis- graceful fight was fifteen or sixteen of the Anti-+ Mormons and one of the Mormons. The bellige+ rents then withdrew to their respective positions, H to renew the fight at some future time. The next news from there will probably bring us accounts sht of a more disastrous nature. can hardly find words sufficiently strong to express our deprecation of these high- handed mob law proceedings on the part of the beiligerents, and of the imbecile conduct of Go- vernor Ford, of Illinois, who, in their early stages, had the power of suppressing them by the strong arm of the law. If this officer had acted in a de- termined manner at the first outbreak, and used the power and resources of the State of Illinois, to suppress them, as did the Governor of the State of New York, to suppress the anti-ren* outrages in Delaware, Rensselaer and Albany, the result would have been the same, and the honor and character of the State of Illinois would have been preserved. Law and order would have triumph- ed over the mobbish portion of both parties, and the reputation of the republic been preserved. By not acting jndicionsly and determinedly at first, ho now ftlads that the spark, which he could have so easily smothered ar first, bas been fanned into a flame of fearful magnitnde, that defies the power of the law, and threatens anarchy and ci- vil revolution in the State, whose destinies he bas Leen elected to preside over We care nothing for the canses that have led to this disgraceful state of things. They may have been of an extraordinary nature—calculated to excite ill-will and hatred between the Mormons and their opponents for aught we know; itis enough for us that the results are disgraceful to ail concerned, to ensure the actors of both parties being condemned from one end of the country to the other. We see a large proportion of the peo- ple of a State arrayed against each other with arms in their hands—we see them take positions in battle form, and deal ont the death destroying Jead in the same manner as they would against be common enemies of their country, and all .ais too because the religious sentiments of one party disagree with those entertained by the other. What a commentary this is on the benefits and influences of free institutions and republican go vernment? We would fain hope that the ringleaders of borh parties will see tho impropriety of their proceedings before any more bleod is spilt-if a second battle has not already taken place—and that they will arrange their difficulties, and re- turn to their homes, like peace-loving and patri- otic citizens. If, to a¢ermplish this desirable end, itmay he necessary for each to make con- cession, let it he done by all means. t an amount of concession be mado, in preference to having the honor and reputation of the country again tarnished, by a repetition of mob-law pro- evedi nwortliy ofthe people of Iitinois, and om pet tothe American character at hoine abroad. ® prisoner in the Castle | {tis the general impression in the | But the question next arises what value | Y | R.

Here we are, at the foot of the eternal glaciers of | his indisposition, will appear this evening in his celebra- | Mont Blane, after a journey of several weeks from London, passing through Belgium—coming up the Rhine—visiting Wiesbaden, Baden Baden, and ail the other German watering places, where kings, princes, players, painters, and pickpockets mix all familiarly together. In the hurry and bustle of preparing to cross the Alps into Italy for a few weeks, it is impossible to give any descrip- tion of the curious men, women, and things we © seen in our delightful tour through Germany and Switzerland. Mrs. B. bas just started to ascend (he Montouvert (Green Peak) togeta view | of the mer-de-glace, (icy sea), and see the highest peaks and glaciers ot Mont Blanc. I doubt | whether she will go far, so steep, precipitous and frightful it appears. Around them isa bustle of travellers, English, Irish, French, Germans, guides, horses, donkies, mules, &c., &c. Such is , the appearance of the beautiful village of Cha- | mouni, at the fo.tof Mont Blanc. I have much to say of the German watering places—their curious state of society—their amuse- | ments—their singular mixtures of prince and ped- | lar—their gambliag houses, open day and night, | Sunday included. These singular places of fush- ionable resort are crowded by English of all ranks | | —probably 100,000 English spend $10,000,000 an- |nually on the continent, in a way of life, and | Style of soviety, totally diflerent from their own country. The Russian nobility also flock to these watering places—and a few travellers sometimes fro.n the United States are discovered, like gems | inahay-stack. A Russian Princess, covered with diamonds and lacs, expressed her utter astonish- ment one evening in Baden Baden, at the singu- lar whiteness of our complexion. She had al- ways supposed that all the Americans were per- | fectly black. Thave taken full notes of the state of society at the German, French and Swiss watering places, | and will give a full and curious description of these places of resort, in contrast with those at ' Saratoga, and others in the United States. They | have features very different from ours—some- times better, sometimes worse. I must postpone this account till | return to Paris. | During our tour we have met with but few Americans. I understand from the hotel keepers, that there have not been many American travel- | lers since the revulsion of 1887. Before thattook place, in one ofthe hotels in Geneva, the Hotel des Bergues, about fifty to seventy would sometimes sitdown to dinner on the same day. We have | fallen in with only two American families, and have seen the records of probably three or four others [ have seen the name of John Harper | and family, from New York, at the various hotels —and also on the records of the one here. | Sitting down at the foot of Mont Blanc, seems to excite similar emotions to those we feel at the foot of the Falls of Niagara. They are both sub- lime—both excite the like emotions—both speak, as it were, from the womb of eternity to the in- had of this mighty mass was terribly magnificent ; | it was last evening, from the bridge of St. Mar- | tin’s, twelve miles from the base of the mountain. | Its magnificent peaks, towering far above the | clouds, were shining in the evening sun, clear, white, cold, and awful. The sight came so sud- | ded!y, so unexpectedly upon me at the tumofthe road, that it made me start back in awe, wonder, or fear. .t wasa singular feeling, and can only be paralleled by those produced by the terrible rush of Niagara Falls. I have many things to say of the singular tran- , sition state of society, government, religion, &c., throughout those portions of Europe which I have soen, but I shall reserve them till we return to | Paris. Steam, electricity, railroads, commerce, changes in Europe. I was not asked for a pass- port from London to Geneva, and yet I passed through half a dozen kingdoms, and principalities | gun—a revolution of peace, caused by railroads, | &c. Ihave much to say of these matters at ano- ther time. Arrairs 1x Catirornta—We have received from our attentive correspondent, several inte- | resting letters from California. ‘They are not quite so late as those received at Washington, but they will prove interesting to our readers, We shall publish them in a day or two. The following notice attached to one of the despatches we give to-day :— ,Died inthe town of Sonoma, San Francisco, Ct nia, on the 8h of May, 1846, Capt. William Smith, 78 years. He was born in Prince George county, Vir- inia ; was for many years a North West trader, from e of Boston. For many eae de nved on board Is on this coast, bel ing to Messrs. Bryant & of Boston, their ca having orders to re- ceive him as @ passenger from ship to ship, after year, as they arrived. The old man, authough having some property in Massachusetts, could not be persuaded to live on shore, until within the last two or three years. Comares Counci.—Both Boards are expected to hold a meeting this evening. Sporting Intelligence. Trottina —Thore will be great sport to-day over the Centreville Course. Two of the fastest horses in the world are to contend- James K. Polk and Moscow. J. K. Polk is owned by a gentleman in Tennessee. He has made a mile in harness in less time than any horse now living—in 2m. 238.—which was over the Beacon Course, in the fall of 1844, against the Fairy Queen. He distanced the Queen the first heat, in the time given above. He was afterwards taken to the South, and was matched with the, great pacer Tippeeanoe, for $1000 aside, two mile heats. He won this match very easy, performing the distance in 6:20. J.K. Polk is a pacer, and he goes noes in a wagon, Moscow to go as his own- | erchooses. Of the horse Moscow, it is hardly necessar: he has made astonishing time in some o .

Oth. Ro Pang Tueatar.—Mr. Forrest heving recovered from ted character of Richelieu, in Bulwer’s play of that name. ‘The admirers of Mr. Forrest pronounce this end King Lear to be characters which he has made peculiarly his own, and his friends doubt much if, with the exception of the older Vandenboff, there is a tragedian living who so correctly delineates the mind end action of the Cardinal, as represented in thix play. Mrs. Hunt will sustain the part of Julie de Mortimer ; and yout that of Mauprat.— Pearson, Andrews, Barry and Stark will alas eppear. From the manner iv which the piece isto be Lionght out, and the strong talent introduced, there can be no doubt but that the performance will be a rich treat to the pub- lic. The evening's entertainments will conclude with the farce of the Mise: of Humen Life,” ia which G. Barrett, Fisher and Miss Fanny Gordon will appear. this evening, and ao unusually attractive bill iw offered on the occasion. Mr. Adams has, during his engoge- | ment, exhibited talent of very superior order, end bad he more constantly turned his attention to the dramatic pro- fession, difficult in the whole réle, and we have no doubt but that he will add nother leaf to the laurel of his reputation.— Miss Julia Dean will take the part of Cordelia. Those who have seen her can best judge of the creditable man- ner in which she will sustain it. The dramaot “ The- rese” will conclude the evening's performances, Mr. sige! and Miss Dean personating the prinsipel charac- ers. artist, will crowd the Bowe’ specious as it is, with the many who have enjoyed an intellectual treat during the engagement of th neficiary. Gaxenwich Tueatas.—The manager of this theatre, Mr. Freer, seems to hi dopted but one plan since the commencement of the season, and that has been by a libe- ral presentation of ever-changing novelties to take the public by sterm and draw them into his hot as Gen. Zack says, nolens volens. The new drama of ‘ The Fire- | man’s Daughter,” written expressly for this theatre, which bas had such a remarkable run, will again be pre- sented this evening. In addition, the tragedy of “ Mac- beth” wall be played, not as it sometimes is expurg ated and cut to pieces, but as it was originally written by the author.

The admission to the Garden is but 60 cents, and we trust that thoxe who would not go inflaenced by char- | itable motives, will. for their own interest, not omit to visit a place where such a variety of truly entertaining and attractive features are presented. Bowery Cri this pl are certainly astonishing, and that they are considered so by the crowded audiences who witness them, is best attested by the frequent and loud applause attendant upon their appuarances. The graceful exhibi- tions of athletic games by the other performers are not excelled in merit by those of any in the country, and in- deed the world might be challenged to find their su riers. A new spectacle, in which the whole force ot equestrian troupe is to be brought into play, is soon to be produced, and from what we understand in relation to it, i i | i wo expect that it will be gorgeous in the extreme.

The | Prophet appears to be a pretty flippant sort of speaker, and evidently has studied the scriptures with a good deal of care and attention—as he had litde hesitation in pointing out chapter and verse to mapper the Mormon doctrine, preached by him. There was a shyht sprinkling of female Mormons, or Mormonesses among the congreya- tion; and previous to the Prophet’s arrival, (at 104 o’c:ock,) we had the gratification to hear a few very good tunes on the piano forte—“*Yankee Doodle,” lady, After reading from John’s gospel, Chap. 14, the Prophet remarked that after a short tour he arrived in Boston on Thursday, and attended & meeting of the Saints—reeeived a letter, stating that much dissension had been caused by the | seceders in New York, particularly the Brigamites. It was said in the Boston papers that G. J. Adams was to be there, and then, a worrant, it was said, wos issued | against him.

The doctrine of the lattor day | ints—the Mormons—was not preached by any other | B ople upon the face of the earth ; and this was the true | doctrine ef Christ. Here was the Mormon doctrine —The | resurrection ofthe dead, and the celestial glory by means | of faith, baptism, and the remission of sin through bap- | tism. The doctrine of the ‘inists and all the protes- | tant Churches, as well as the lic, was not the true Gospel. The book of the Revelations sustained, he con- tended, the doctrine of the latter day saints. That book ' was written by St, John the Divine, who wrote five books of the Bible, an k was the first that was written by him, though it he last in the Bible. If there were any errors in that book, the curse would fall upon St. John himself. He there tells us that if avy man shall add to or take from what that book contains, he shail be accursed. That book consisted principally of prophecies as to what should take place, and St. John therefore pronousced this dreadful malediction against any one who would preach a contrary doctrine. Mala- chi, and David and Jeremiah violated this law, as well as Joseph Smith, as their opponents said. 1 the interpreta tion put upon it by Joseph Smith be not correct, the fame must be said of the ancient prophets. Supposing Malachi or any of the ancient prophets Li in the pre- sent day, they would just be rejected as the prophets of the present day. The people rebelled t the ancient Prophets, who were no more than th pe of the present doy, and the prophets were sacrificed just as the prophets of the present day are now sacrificed, He would next call their ai n to the text of Scripture, “Thou art Peter ; und upon this rock I will build my church, and the gatos of hell shall not prevail against it.” The oj nents of Mormonism all disagreed on this subject ; but ir Mormons bed interpreted it in the proper spirit— ‘Ait contending Wo iit day suis were the only tiue , the Lod | gregation separate. rophet conciuded, and the co: ——___ The Rochester Advertiser, of tha 18th, says ‘ Yestor vn at ph hs re three, we received word from vston, via New York, that there wes no steamer in it ) at three o'clock sc Bowery Turatne.—Mr. A.

Sunday, Sept. 40-6 P.M. The stock market during the past week bas experi- enced several shocks of a gi nic nature, and the ef fect hos been visible in the fluctuations in prices. Not- withstanding the Jepression in some of the fancies, the general tendency of prices, towards the close of the week, was decidedly upward, and an additional impetus was given upon the receipt of several ’ later intel- ligence from Europe. From the existing appearance of things, we should judge that the upward movement fo prices was likely to continue, and that holders of some of the fancies would, in the course of a week or two, realise an advance of several per cent. What improvement takes place in quotations will undonbtedly be the result of speculation, although the daily increasing value of certain fancy stocks should have a very great influence upon the market price, and carry it np toa proper point. There is every indication of a speculative movement in stoeks, or, in other words the elemehts of speculation are in a vory healthy state, and would require but very little agitation to put them into operation. It appears, however, impossible to draw in those dispose to make a proper use of these elements ; or, in other words, the outsiders are very shy, and oan, not be prevailed upon to take a hand in the game Without them Wall street wears a very dull aspect, and the occupation of a large portion of the brokers who congregate in that vicinity becomes poor business These brokers may from time to time make an operation ont of mach other, but their resources are so limited that they will hardly suffice to keep body and soul together.
